AWS Certified Developer Associate DVA-C02 Practice Question

The service that offers the ability to conduct pre-deployment validation checks on configuration data, ensuring its correctness before the configuration is deployed to the application, is designed for structured configuration management and is capable of deploying configurations without impacting the application state. AWS AppConfig is specifically built for this purpose, enabling developers to create, manage, and quickly deploy configurations. The service also allows for configurations to be validated against a defined schema, and it supports controlled deployment strategies to limit the blast radius of any potential misconfigurations. AWS Secrets Manager's primary use case is to secure, store, and manage access to secrets, and while it's an application configuration tool in the broader sense, it does not offer configuration validation capabilities. AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store provides hierarchical storage for configuration data and secrets management but does not support the same level of validation and controlled deployment options as AppConfig. AWS CodeDeploy is a deployment service that automates application deployments but is not specialized in configuration management, nor does it offer validation features focused on configuration data.
